Biography:
In May 2023, I graduated from Wofford College with a B.S. in Environmental Science and a minor in Data Science. As an undergraduate, I had the privilege of being a part of two interdisciplinary studies that documented, analyzed, and communicated inequities in human-environmental interactions in Spartanburg County, SC. From early on at Wofford, I knew I wanted to continue my research at a formal Geography department so that I could expand my geospatial skill set and apply what I have learned to new real-world problems and places.
As I began my search for a graduate program, Appalachian State University became the clear choice because of its small size, distinguished faculty, and beautiful location western North Carolina. Further, I was offered the opportunity to study with Dr. Maggie Sugg under her NSF Career Grant in mental health. My research methods are primarily quantitative with interests including human-environmental interactions, environmental justice, and mental health.
In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors, hiking, running, traveling, cooking, and knitting.
